PPS: TWO PLANS IN ONE

divider

AOPA's Pilot Protection Services provides proactive tips and advice from aviation medical and legal experts to help you avoid problems with the FAA.

And it combines the best of AOPA's Legal Services Plan and former medical program to help you protect both your medical and pilot's certificates with one plan – at nearly half the cost.

PPS puts experienced aviation professionals on your side for a fraction of their normal fees.

The program was built with input from AOPA members like you. It's designed to meet the needs of pilots, starting at just $39 a year.

WHY DO I NEED IT?

Let's face it, we're human. A simple FAR error or oversight, or an unexpected medical situation could result in months of down time and thousands of dollars in fees.

Our medical and legal experts give you solid advice to avoid bureaucratic snafus in the first place. And if you do get tangled in red tape, we'll help you navigate the maze and get back in the air.
